There’s nothing like that glow on people’s faces after the final shofar.

Yom Kippur 5787 at The Maybourne.

Most of us live with a quiet pressure to become more.

More successful.
More productive.
More accomplished.
More respected.

Growth matters. But what if real transformation doesn’t begin by becoming someone else?

What if it begins by revealing more of who you already are?

The Human Experience returns October 6 for an evening of Kabbalah, guided meditation, live music, and honest conversation.

Kabbalah: Why Am I Always Trying to Become More?
with Rabbi Mendel Simons

Kol Nidre is more than a melody.

It is the sound of a soul returning.

This Sunday evening, we’ll gather at The Maybourne Beverly Hills for full traditional Yom Kippur prayers, brought to life through timeless melodies, meaningful reflection and live A Ca****la singing.

Whether synagogue has been part of your life forever or you haven’t stepped inside one in years, you are welcome here.

SUNDAY–MONDAY
SEPTEMBER 20–21
THE MAYBOURNE BEVERLY HILLS

Families are welcome, with a full children’s program for ages 3–12.

Tonight at 7:30.

Rachey and I are opening up a conversation about a question almost all of us have asked ourselves: Why do I keep doing this?

If this feels personal, come. It will be an evening of Chassidic wisdom, meditation and live music, and I’d really love to have you there.

We spend so much of the year trying to become someone else.
Maybe the work of a new year is different.

הֲשִׁיבֵנוּ Bring us back
חַדֵּשׁ יָמֵינוּ כְּקֶדֶם Renew our days as they once were

Not a new self. A return to the truest one, the part of you beneath the fear, the habits, the disappointment, and the noise.

08/22/2026

Most of us have at least one pattern we keep promising ourselves we’ll stop repeating.

A reaction.
A relationship dynamic.
A habit.
A version of ourselves that takes over before we’ve had a chance to choose.

And then we make it worse by saying: This is just who I am.

But Kabbalah offers a far more hopeful possibility:

Not every voice inside you is you.

On September 1, The Human Experience returns for a special pre–High Holiday evening of Kabbalah, live music and meditation.

The goal isn’t to arrive at the High Holidays feeling more ashamed.

It’s to arrive more honest, more awake and more free.

We think love is supposed to make us feel safe.
What if love also reveals the places where we still don’t?
